Mitt Romney laments Trump’s ‘unfortunate’ attacks on possible impeachment witnesses
The Washington Examiner ^ | January 31, 2020 | Caitlin Yilek

Posted on 01/31/2020 11:48:44 AM PST by Trump20162020

Republican Sen. Mitt Romney is not keen on President Trump’s attacks on impeachment witnesses, but conceded that the insults are working.

“He has made a career of trashing people by tweet,” Romney, 72, told the New York Times.

“It is part of his shtick and it’s working for him,” the Utah senator said of Trump’s attacks on his former national security adviser John Bolton. “I think it’s unfortunate.”

ROMNEY AND COLLINS MUST HAVE A STRAIN OF CORONOVIRUS OF THE BRAIN THAT THE CDC DOES NOT KNOW ABOUT. THEY ARE THE STUPIDEST POLITICIANS IN THE WORLD AND ARE ALLOWED TO GIVE PRESS BRIEFINGS.

I too "lament" casting my vote for him.

Trump’s fighting instincts are why he’s president and you’re not, Mitt. You can decry Trump all you want, but you can’t argue with his results.

Did Romney lose his voice when Obama was President? I don’t recall him trashing Obama.

“and it’s working for him”

and THAT’S the real problem you have with Trump about EVERYTHING he does, right Mitt? it’s all working ...

Mitt, your a petty little man, full of source grapes revenge, and you’ll go down in that part of history that no one remembers, as just one of the many defeated Presidential candidates who eventually just fade away into nothingness ...

(and no, Mitt, you NEVER couda been a contenda ...)

Let me see now: The media and the democrat and Hollywood types and the academic types attack Trump 24/7 and call him every name that they can dream up and when Trump responds back a few times a day, he is being divisive. That is also according to Terry Bradshaw.

Now those impeachment witnesses attacked Trump in every way they thought they could get away with and Trump is supposed to smile.

Trump does not understand that if he stands still and lets the world kick him in the teeth, hourly, he will be praised. Yes sir. That is all he has to do.

That is just plain silly. Tweeting has been around a few years, but President Trump’s “career” has been around for, ah, a while longer.

Every time Romney talks like this, he reveals a part of his character that makes me think Obama was the least worst option we had over either himself or McCain. Democrats never attack each other when one is down like this. Romney gets Trump when he is down at every opportunity.

Love the split face photo of Pierre Delecto! It reminds me of the X-Files “El Mutato” episode: a split-faced mutant man who secretly impregnates women while they sleep, creating little El Mutato babies.

One of the mothers goes on The Jerry Springer Show to lovingly show off her El Mutato baby. The episode ends with Scully and Mulder taking the hideous but gentle El Mutato to a Cher concert (As she sings “Walkin’ in Memphis”)

Romney wanted to beat Obama just as much as Marshal Pétain wanted to beat Hitler.

Exactly. Which is why, immediately after the election (in which we voted for Romney), horrified that he took a dive, my wife and I changed our affiliation from R to Independent.

In general I’m against boycotts and recalls... I’m also a hypocrite. I’m boycotting Utah and will do my best to ridicule Mormons until they recall the former liberal governors of Massachusetts. Romney and Ryan the two reasons I be woke. Man this liberal play book is easy
